Springfield XDM .45ACP 4.5 Black Essentials Package With Threaded Barrel

Overview

The Springfield XDM .45ACP 4.5 Black Essentials Package with Threaded Barrel delivers a purpose-built defensive handload platform optimized for suppressor use or muzzle device attachment. Chambered in .45 ACP, this full-size semi-automatic pistol combines the proven XDM polymer frame architecture with a 4.5-inch hammer-forged steel barrel featuring factory-installed 1/2×28 threading. The Essentials Package strips away non-critical accessories to provide a cost-effective entry point for shooters requiring a threaded barrel without sacrificing the core features of the XDM line. Each unit includes two 13-round magazines, a paddle-style holster, double magazine pouch, and a lockable hard case. The black Melonite finish on both barrel and slide ensures corrosion resistance and low-glare operation across varied lighting conditions.

• Competition shooters in USPSA Single Stack or Limited divisions who need a threaded barrel option
• Defensive firearm owners who train regularly and value the 13-round magazine capacity in .45 ACP
